I’m not going through life expecting something better to come after. Makes me appreciate what we have, knowing that it’s all we get.

“The anniversary of you joining Lemmy”
To this day, whenever I’m alone in an elevator I drum out the percussion part of the theme: dun-dun dun dun-dun…
Hey man, I’m all over the comment sections. I am no content creator, just an armchair critic and pundit. The peanut gallery is important too y’know. :)
The total anonymity aspect is seductive. Say anything without it being tied to any one user. Lots of toxic and nasty shit comes out of that, but also some crazy ideas and high concept stuff that might never gain traction because nobody wants to go on record about it.
Make little finger sandwiches out of them and have a tea party.
That’s a good one. Love the art style of all their videos.
This certainly has the ring of truthiness to it.
Now kith.
I don’t!
My wife does it for me, lol.
I have a group text with my immediate family so we can coordinate semi-regular get-togethers, and I do the same with my own kids, but that’s it.
(There’s no way I’d be able to get my parents to learn how use anything more complicated anyhow, and just getting everyone in my own household to use a shared calendar was a whole thing. Simpler is better.)
My wife, however, likes staying informed, if not always in touch, and so dutifully does all the obligatory proud parent posting on facebook. She lets me know if anything important comes up from one of the relatives on there.
Distant family stays distant, which is how I like it, because most of them are pretty right wing anyway and the less I have to engage with their gibberish the better. Otherwise I only visit facebook occasionally to browse a shitposting page for a podcast I listen to. It’s better this way.
Depending on what you’re using it for, your best bet might be a compact set like this or this.
There are various types of universal “female” style wrenches, but nothing I’ve ever seen for the “male” type that requires different bits. A set with integrated bit storage is probably as small as you’re going to get.
Sometimes you just have to work within the system that exists and promote change from within.
The fact that it’s usually women doing the dumb thing is problematic, but these jokes are easily mapped onto whoever you want to denigrate. As a Montana, these were often jokes about North Dakota, and as the scion of a large Norwegian clan, I also often heard these as Sven and Ole jokes.
To me the latter is actually a funnier way to approach them, because it’s two characters who everyone knows are dumb (and who are stand-ins for those people in your life who act this way) and you’re not just blanket insulting a whole group of people.
I’d modify the question to specify that each life is presented as a unique and compelling motion picture, each between an hour and four hours in length, of the sort that would be likely to win either critical acclaim or box office success (or both) at some point in the late 20th to early 21st century - and that I get to watch them in an unending variety of well-staffed and enthusiastically-attended movie theaters, with interesting companions who I can discuss the movie with for as long as I want to afterwards, with endless credit to spend at the concessions, and with no bodily needs like discomfort or fatigue.
Honestly, imagine watching Schindler’s List, Come and See, and Jean Dielman a billion times over. And then imagine that those films are each several decades in length.
The prompt said that time freezes. No time = no pain.
Well if that’s the real answer, then any question at all would be a waste.
And the unfounded snobbery award of the day goes to
Electrical tape is your friend.
